Where Has the Semester Gone?

It's November already, and now we are fully into the final push for exams, projects, papers and reports.  A lot is happening, and you may feel like you're not up to the task...yet.  But we encourage you to embrace a growth mindset: a way of thinking that allows us to see ourselves as evolving, learning and changing.  We might feel overwhelmed and out of our depth today with all the tasks ahead, but we can embrace a growth mindset that says "I will try my best, take on one task at time, and see this challenge as an opportunity to learn." 

Our goal is always to support you with timely information and strategies to be the best you.  We really mean it when we say:  YOU CAN DO THIS.  Embracing a growth mindset can be another tool to help you do it.

Need to Catch Up on Requirements? Missed a Group Meeting?

There is still time!  Make up your missed group meetings by attending a Wellness Month event.  These are events happening all throughout November--but don't wait until the last week.  Check out what is available to attend now.

Questions? We Can Help

Thrive Peer Mentoring professional & student staff are available Monday through Friday 9:00am to 5:00pm in Thrive Center, located in Bartlett Academic Success Center 102, and we can meet in-person or remotely via Zoom.  We can help you, and if we can't, we will get you to the right people who can.
